WooCommerce is a powerful eCommerce plugin that allows you to sell anything, beautifully. When you’re running a WooCommerce store, one of the first things you’ll want to do is customize the product sorting options to best suit your products and your customers’ needs.

In this article, we’ll show you how to customize a product sort in WooCommerce.

To begin, log into your WordPress dashboard and navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Products. On the Products page, select the Display tab and scroll down to the Default Product Sorting section.

In the Default Product Sorting section, you can choose from the following product sorting options:

  • Default Sorting (custom + name):

    This is the default sorting option for WooCommerce.

  • Sort by popularity:

    This option will sort products by how popular they are, based on number of sales.

  • Sort by average rating:

    This option will sort products by their average customer rating, from highest to lowest.

  • Sort by newness:

    This option will sort products by when they were published, with the newest products appearing first.

  • Sort by price (ascending):

    This option will sort products by price, from lowest to highest.

After you’ve selected your desired option from the drop-down menu, be sure to click on the Save Changes button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.

That’s it! You’ve successfully customized a product sort in WooCommerce.
